Abstract

We show the design, fabrication, and integration of a 128-channel aluminum nitride photonic chip with tunable diamond quantum micro-chiplets containing silicon vacancy and germanium vacancy color centers, enabling a chip-integrated architecture towards multiplexed photon-mediated entanglement.

We experimentally demonstrate the integration of 128 waveguide-coupled diamond spin qubits with aluminum nitride photonics. This large-scale, tunable, efficient and optically coherent multi-qubit platform sets the stage for high-rate entanglement distribution in a large quantum network.

Hybrid III-V diamond photonic platform for quantum nodes based on neutral silicon vacancy centers in diamond

Ding Huang, Alex Abulnaga, Sacha Welinski +3 more

Integrating atomic quantum memories based on color centers in diamond with on-chip photonic devices would enable entanglement distribution over long distances. However, efforts towards integration have been challenging because color centers can be highly sensitive to their environment, and their properties degrade in nanofabricated structures. Here, we describe a heterogeneously integrated, on-chip, III-V diamond platform designed for neutral silicon vacancy (SiV0) centers in diamond that circumvents the need for etching the diamond substrate. Through evanescent coupling to SiV0 centers near the surface of diamond, the platform will enable Purcell enhancement of SiV0 emission and efficient frequency conversion to the telecommunication C-band. The proposed structures can be realized with readily available fabrication techniques.

Quantum Photonic Circuits Integrated with Color Centers in Designer Nanodiamonds

Kinfung Ngan, Yuan Zhan, Constantin Dory +2 more

Diamond has emerged as a leading host material for solid-state quantum emitters, quantum memories, and quantum sensors. However, the challenges in fabricating photonic devices in diamond have limited its potential for use in quantum technologies. While various hybrid integration approaches have been developed for coupling diamond color centers with photonic devices defined in a heterogeneous material, these methods suffer from either large insertion loss at the material interface or evanescent light-matter coupling. Here, we present a new technique that enables the deterministic assembly of diamond color centers in a silicon nitride photonic circuit. Using this technique, we observe Purcell enhancement of silicon vacancy centers coupled to a silicon nitride ring resonator. Our hybrid integration approach has the potential for achieving the maximum possible light-matter interaction strength while maintaining low insertion loss and paves the way toward scalable manufacturing of large-scale quantum photonic circuits integrated with high-quality quantum emitters and spins.

Towards tunable color centers in nanodiamonds coupled to integrated optics

Roy Philip George Konnoth Ancel, Surena Fatemi, Régis Déturche +1 more

We propose to couple single photons, generated by a germanium vacancy (GeV) / Silicon Vacancy (SiV) center located within one nanodiamond-ND, to other GeV centers in other nanodiamonds. We will then have a hybrid quantum photonic platform made of color centers that act as stationary matter qubits and single photons that act as flying qubits, connecting nodes together. Our initial attempt will be focused on establishing a two-node network and then look towards scaling up to a multiple node quantum network. To this extent, we shall study the spectral as well as correlation properties of group IV color centers embedded in nanodiamonds to choose suitable candidates for the proposed two node quantum network. We will elaborate on the process as well as applications of the proposed device in the context of quantum communication and networks. We will also look into the study the interaction of a magnetic ion with color centers in bulk diamond.

We present quantum network nodes based on silicon-vacancy (SiV) color-centers incorporated into diamond nanophotonic cavities. Strong cavity coupling enables photon- mediated interactions between pairs of SiV centers. We demonstrate full control over a two- qubit nanophotonic register consisting of an SiV electronic spin coupled to a 13C memory qubit.
